Dodgers notes: Shohei Ohtani shines, Miguel Rojas gets apology
Wednesday saw the return of Shohei Ohtani to the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers, and in typical Shohei style, he picked up where he left off last season (aside from that Game 7 clunker).

Dodgers option River Ryan, starting rotation becoming clearer
The Dodgers continued sorting out their roster on Wednesday, sending both pitcher River Ryan and utility man Ryan Fitzgerald to minor league camp.

Dodgers notes: Roki Sasaki, Blake Treinen, Yoshinobu Yamamoto
